Ngemuva kokwethulwa kwe-iPhone yokuqala, i-Apple yafaka imishini esemthethweni ukuze ukuvimbela noma iyiphi inkampani ekusebenziseni amalungelo obunikazi ehlukene eyayibhalisile phambilini lapho uzama ukwethula amadivayisi abengama ku-iPhone. Le nkampani ilwe kanzima neSamsung ezinkantolo ezahlukahlukene, eziningi zazo ezinqobile ngokuphoqa inkampani eyimbangi ukuthi ikhokhe isamba esikhulu sezigidi zamadola njengesinxephezelo. Kepha kubonakala sengathi eminyakeni yamuva nje sekushintshe ngokuphelele, ngoba yi-Apple engayeki ukuthola izikhalazo ngokusetshenziswa kwamalungelo obunikazi abhaliswe ngaphambilini ngaphandle kokudlula ebhokisini.
Ukushiya eceleni ama-Patent Trolls, izinkampani ezinikele ekubikeni zifuna ukunyamalala kweminye imisebenzi eyaziwa kakhulu yi-Apple efana neFaceTime noma iMessage, izikhalazo eziphoqe inkampani ukuthi ikhokhe imali engaphezu kwezigidi ezingama-500 zamaRandi kulolu hlobo lwenkampani, izinkampani ezingakaze zibe nomqondo wokuhweba ngamalungelo obunikazi anazo.
Kepha kulokhu osola inkampani yiCalifornia Institute of Technology, eyaziwa kangcono njengeCaltech. Njengoba kubikwe yi-MacRumors, UCaltech ubhalise amalungelo obunikazi amaningi phakathi kuka-2006 no-2012 ahlobene namakhodi we-IRA / LDPC. Lawa makhodi athuthukisa ukusebenza kanye namanani wedatha ephelele. Lobu buchwepheshe obufanayo njengamanje busetshenziswa ngaphakathi kwamazinga we-802.11n kanye ne-802.11ac Wi-Fi asetshenziswa yimikhiqizo eminingi yenkampani esekwe eCupertino.
Isikhalazo nge-Apple sifakwe eNkantolo Yesifunda sase-United States eCalifornia. Ngokusho kukaCaltech, imikhiqizo ye-Apple kufaka phakathi i-iPhone, i-iPad neMac zisebenzisa ama-IRA / LDPC encoders nama-decoder. ngaleyo ndlela kwephula amalungelo obunikazi amane abebhaliswe ngaphambilini yiCalifornia Institute of Technology.
